Voshliya ... check out ChinesePod.com. It's a GREAT site and has free Mandarin podcasts graded by difficulty level. They have close to 300 now and add 8-9 more each week.

I was toying with the idea of doing what Steve is doing in another thread: posting Pimsleur transcripts of Mandarin Chinese lessons. Unfortunately ...

1.) I don't know if there are enough (any?) native Chinese here willing to proof read it.

2.) I don't know if there are many regulars here that want to learn Chinese in the first place.

Thanks a lot Ravindave!
I wrote "I don't speak chinese"
and the phonetic translation is wo pu shuo zhongquo hua"but in french.
I studied chinese for two years at the institute of eastern languages in Paris but I forgot all or almost...It was 30 years ago and I didn't practice it.
Your site seems interesting.I'll have a longer look at it.
Have a nice day :)

Ooops! Forgot to allow for different transcription modes for different languages. Sorry for the confusion.

Anyway, I've been doing ChinesePod for several months. I have a slight advantage to that -- I also have access to several Chinese students at the University who guide my progress. Between that and the Pimsleur tapes, I'm getting a pretty solid foundation.

I'd have NEVER attempted Chinese in the pre-Internet days. But with so many wonderful resources being made available on-line, I almost feel obligated to explore them.

Как вы наверно уже знайте, если вы хотите плавно говорить, вам нужна практика чтобы привыкнуть к звуку иностранного языка. К сожалению, главный источник моего образования — старые книги и предреволюционная литература. В результате ... я могу прочитать Пушкина, но говорю как Недоросль. :oops:

RavinDave, 我也学习中文 :)
